Gravitation: A Decennial Perspective (6/8-6/12/2003, PennState) Gravitational Waves from Extreme Mass-Ratio Binary System 1: Introduction We want to calculate the gravitational wave form from an extreme mass-ratio binary system for LISA project. The central black hole is considered to be a Kerr black hole. For its extreme mass-ratio, we expect that a linear perturbation is an effective method of investigation.
Gravitation: A Decennial Perspective (6/8-6/12/2003, PennState) Gravitational Waves from Extreme Mass-Ratio Binary System • One can calculate the gravitational wave form by a linear perturbation, given an orbital evolution of the binary system. • We need the orbital evolution of 10^8 rotations for one-year observation of gravitational waves. Beyond 10^3 rotations, the orbit deviates from a geodesic by the secular effect of radiation reaction.
Gravitation: A Decennial Perspective (6/8-6/12/2003, PennState) Gravitational Waves from Extreme Mass-Ratio Binary System We want to know the evolution equation of the orbit, namely, we want to solve “The self-force problem”. We can use the linear perturbation since the instantaneous deviation from a geodesic is small.
Gravitation: A Decennial Perspective (6/8-6/12/2003, PennState) Gravitational Waves from Extreme Mass-Ratio Binary System 2: Self-force in A Linear Perturbation We consider a linear perturbation induced by a point mass. Use of “a point particle” may be a good approximation, but, it causes a difficulty.

R : spatial distance between the field point and the particle location • The geodesic equation in the perturbed metric diverges at R -> 0. • Because of the divergence, the linear perturbation becomes invalid. • These problems were solved by the mass-regularization, the matched asymptotic expansion method, and an axiomatic approach.

Gravitation: A Decennial Perspective (6/8-6/12/2003, PennState) Gravitational Waves from Extreme Mass-Ratio Binary System 3: Regularization of the fields We need a regularization calculation. • A new type of regularization calculation; • A global technique to derive S-part is not known. • We cannot use the spatial Fourier transformation.
Gravitation: A Decennial Perspective (6/8-6/12/2003, PennState) Gravitational Waves from Extreme Mass-Ratio Binary System We have developed a formula; By the local coordinate expansion of S-part, we can decompose the divergent and non-vanishing part of it. If we have the full metric perturbation as a sum of harmonics, we can derive the self-force.
Gravitation: A Decennial Perspective (6/8-6/12/2003, PennState) Gravitational Waves from Extreme Mass-Ratio Binary System • A self-force calculation is successful in a Schwarzschild background in a simple manner. • A calculation in a Kerr background comes to be possible in principle. • The practical application is difficult, especially, in calculating the full metric perturbation.

Gravitation: A Decennial Perspective (6/8-6/12/2003, PennState) Gravitational Waves from Extreme Mass-Ratio Binary System Because of the periodicity of the orbit, the self-force can be expanded as l Linear Perturbation becomes invalid dE, dL, dC
Gravitation: A Decennial Perspective (6/8-6/12/2003, PennState) Gravitational Waves from Extreme Mass-Ratio Binary System In the short time scale (of the order of the dynamical time scale), the orbit just exchanges the energy with radiation. In the long time scale, the orbital energy radiates away, and the orbital energy tends to lose. l Linear Perturbation becomes invalid dl, dl, dt, df
